Hi dudes, I have an EH 179 Wide Radiator to go in to our FE with an 173 Manual 3.08 but not sure if its going to be enough to cool it in extreme temps and towing etc. Would I be better off going to a Commodore Crossflow? If so which model is most commonly used? Also would yous go for fixed or thermo fans? Thanks Hobbo.

The wide EH radiator will be fine and easier to fit. The big "IF" is it must be in good order - even a triple core V8 radiator wont keep your 173 cool if is half blocked up.
